rangersxfc 265 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 biggest load of shit you will ever see Iain King scottish sunCHARLES GREEN is facing his most difficult journey yet as the new Mr Rangers, a trip called dignity.Watching cancer-stricken Light Blues legend Sandy Jardine’s emotional address to over 44,000 Gers fans before last Saturday’s 3-1 win over East Stirlingshire should have been an education for the man who would be king of Govan.Jardine spoke of his battle for life, of the inspiration he was taking from the touching tribute the fans now pay in every game by applauding through the second minute to honour the no2 jersey he wore with such distinction in his days as Sandy in royal blue.Anyone who believes Jardine would have backed the bile-filled gesture to offer Celtic’s Champions League rivals Juventus training rights at Murray Park is sadly mistakenThat crass, classless stunt was for me the lowest ebb of Green’s tumultuous 10 months at the helm of a footballing giant he somehow managed to wrest control of for just £5.5million.His business acumen has to be admired, God spare me from more whining from Paul Murray and his Blue Knights cohorts about how they were stiffed and beaten to the punch.Give me a break. They had an eternity to get the deal done and couldn’t do it.Douglas Park sat for months in the shadows like a Bond villain pouring scorn on others and spinning some grand Machiavellian plot that would eventually unravel in his eleventh hour bid alongside Clyde Blowers tycoon Jim McColl and former Gers boss Walter Smith.As their club begins a grinding countdown to the clinching of the Third Division title “The Rangers Men” must look themselves in the mirror and admit they failed when it mattered most.Green got it done and in time he will surely reap the rewards for that as the money machine that is the blue half of the Old Firm slowly rumbles back into life clad in a new Puma shirt with Blackthorn emblazoned across the chest.For now, though, the Rangers chief executive would do well to keep those who helped bankroll Nine in a row and the Sir David Murray glory years with their corporate largesse in his inner circleThey couldn’t find a way to finance the deal they all craved but they understand Rangers, they know that cheap shot grandstanding like the Juventus nonsense simply stokes the fires that can all too quickly ignite in the bitterly divided football city of Glasgow.Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell and manager Neil Lennon have done well to keep their counsel on Gers’ tawdry behaviour ahead of the first leg of the last 16 of the Champions League against La Vecchia Signora.Privately, the truth is they were seething and in my eyes they had every right to be. A line was crossed and it is a lesson Green must learnThese sporting behemoths co-exist in our small land on a diet of grimacing emnity and grudging respect.If the blunt Yorkshireman continues down this line of fanning the flames of hatred and constantly trying to appeal to the lowest common denominator the next Old Firm game will be Apocalypse Now. Light the light blue touchpaper and retire.Forget football, we’d be as well watching them stage the Call of Duty derby armed to the teeth.Picture the scene should a still weakened second-rate Rangers draw the Hoops in the Cup at Celtic Park early next season in front of a baying home crowd with the Juve wind-up still fresh in their minds.Right now the Gers defence of Argyriou, Hegarty, Cribari and Wallace would get slaughtered at the hands of a side good enough to beat Barcelona.It would be as former owner Murray so eloquently put it in his broadside at the SPL’s title-stripping fiasco “the bayoneting of the wounded.”Gers are murdered 5-0 and the home fans waiting too long for this game in any case gloat for fun fuelled by the fury caused by that training ground affront.The supporters spill out into the streets, Saturday night’s alright for fighting, Charles retires to his plush bolthole and pulls up the drawbridge. Get the picture?Don’t get me wrong on my first meeting with Green in the inner sanctum of Ibrox I liked the man, he is straight-talking, magnificently politically incorrect and engaging company.He as good as said then he was the Rangers equivalent of Fergus McCann. Here to save a club and make a few bob.Like so many I have seen and interviewed over the last two decades he now wears the blazer with pride and he has had a chip on both shoulders sewn in at Slater’s. He’s got Rangersitis.That’s no crime, this mad, mental football city holds two institutions different from any other clubs in the world. They get under the skin of those who become involved in them and stay there.I get that. What I don’t get is Green’s insistence this week that he just wants Rangers to be left alone to rebuild.Stop screaming that you want to leave for England every two minutes then. Butt out of a league reconstruction row that has got nothing to do with you.As an associate member of the SFL you don’t even have a VOTE. Take your punishment on the chin, come back clean with your head held high. That’s what you promised before the bombast started.Listen, on balance Green has been good for the Light Blues. After a start full of suspicions as the air of treachery hung around the place following the reign of Craig Whyte he has galvanised the club.His Barnum and Bailey schtick has lifted a crestfallen support and brought gates of 49,000 through the doors to watch Third Division slayings. It wouldn’t happen anywhere else.Yet as you watched Celtic slide bravely out of Europe in Turin on Wednesday night you wondered what those who matter on the continent thought of their bitterest rivals after that pathetic Juventus caper. Not much I’d wager.With power comes responsibility Charles, remember that Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And did the turn their noses up previously, because juve aint the first team to take advantage of our world class training facilities when playing here. The "celtic slide bravely out of europe..." bit got me laughing. They got fucked 5-0 over two games, and their manager embarrassed himself through out the whole fuckin tournament.

nacho_nacho_man 477 Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 Funnily enough there was no mention of 'bile-filled gestures' when we were forced to squeeze far too many games into a short period prior to competing in a European final.
